To record and listen to audio associated with your screen recording, you'll need a sound card, microphone, and speakers.

Make sure there's enough disk space on your local drive to record and save your screen recording.

Record your computer screen and embed it in PowerPoint

On the Insert tab, click Screen Recording.

On the Control Dock, click Select Area (Windows logo key+Shift+A).

Note: The minimum size area you can record is 64x64 pixels.

When you see the cross haired
cursor , click and drag to select the area of the screen you want to record.

Tip: PowerPoint automatically records the audio and the mouse pointer, so by default those options are selected on the control dock. To turn them off, deselect Audio (Windows logo key+Shift+U) and Record Pointer (Windows logo key+Shift+O).

Click Record (Windows logo key+Shift+R).

Tip: Unless you pin the Control Dock to the screen, it will slide up into the margin while you record. To access an unpinned Control Dock while recording, place the cursor at the top of the screen.
